Reviews
"A fine contribution to the green-thumb genre."—Publishers Weekly
"This collection is a treasure."—Booklist
"Elizabeth Lawrence is always inspiring; her writing not only conveys her love of gardening as she experiences it from day to day and month to month, but she draws on the wisdom of earlier botanists and gardeners to add spice to her interpretations. I am grateful to her for so much guidance both in the joy of gardening and more practical matters."—Penelope Hobhouse, author of Garden Style
"I have learned more about horticulture, plants, and garden history and literature from Elizabeth Lawrence than from any other one person."—Katharine S. White in Onward and Upward in the Garden
